South Australia's Algal Bloom Sparks Calls for National Disaster Declaration

An ecologist suggests an "algal war" along South Australia's south coast could be a sign that the state's toxic bloom is turning against itself. Bioluminescent algae has been spotted, believed to eat the Karenia mikimotoi algae responsible for mass fish kills. The Greens have called for a national disaster declaration due to the bloom's impact on coastal communities and businesses.
